[edit]

Right in the middle of the Terminology on my iPhone appears the huge letter CheezDeez On Top. I don't see how to get rid of it. Would someone please do so? Signinstranger (talk) 22:04, 2 May 2024 (UTC)Reply

@Signinstranger Yes I see that too. It is probably in some template. Not sure which one, or how to figure that out. 📊Panamitsu (talk) 22:08, 2 May 2024 (UTC)Reply

[edit]

1. The Oxford English Dictionary gives nine pronunciations of "carillon" for UK English. The most frequently used pronunciation is /ˈkarᵻljən/ KARR-uh-lyuhn.

2. What source or sources define a carillon by "23 bells"? No reference is given in the article.

3. The sounding of bells to produce a melody is a more effective definition of a carillon than the number of bells. Some carillons in France, and Belgium have only a few bells.  Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A00:23C7:358C:F601:9D95:ED50:F205:5E40 (talk) 16:19, 12 August 2025 (UTC)Reply

1. Do you have a source for this claim? The article already has 2 sources for this fact. Would appreciate a better source if it is currently wrong.
2. The article has several sources for this claim, just not in the opening section. See the following sentence in the article under "Range": It is generally accepted that a carillon must have a minimum of 23 bells, or else it is called a chime.[1]. Additionally, there are tons of news outlets, carillon owners, etc, that list the same definition.
3. No, that is not an appropriate definition when the international community of people who play these carillons do not define it as such. Also, see the following sentence in the article: Carillons of 15 to 22 bells which were built before 1940 may be classified as "historical carillons" by the World Carillon Federation.[2]
